I came across this incredible photo of a tiny tree frog using a leaf as an umbrella to shelter itself from the rain taken by Photographer Penkdix Palme.

The aqua-phobic amphibian clung on to the stem of the green leaf for an impressive 30 minutes as it was lashed by wind and rain. The two-inch high frog appears to angle the makeshift umbrella towards the direction of the downpour.

Large droplets of water gather at the bottom of the leaf and surrounding branch while the clever tiny frog remains protected.

Penkdix, who only took up photography six months ago, said he was shocked when he stumbled upon the unusual scene in his hometown of Jember, East Java, Indonesia.

I created a quickpage using the Grass Stains Collection to showcase the photo of this adorable little tree frog. Click on the image to see a larger version.
